What's in the book?

This is different from other books I've written – tutorials and tips, yes, but it will also be packed with pre-built, self-contained solutions you can apply to your projects in minutes. See a feature you want in your app? Just copy it from my project to yours, and you're done.

IMPORTANT: The Swift AI Playbook is being released chapter-by-chapter so you can start applying its techniques today.

The full book will contain chapters on:

• Foundation Models, Apple's powerful, private, on-device large language model – available now!

• Create ML, the fastest way to train linear regressors, image classifiers, and more.

• MLX, Apple's high-performance framework for training models on Apple Silicon.

• Speech to Text and Text to Speech, providing natural, voice-first ways for users to interact with your apps.

• Building with external APIs such as ChatGPT, including doing so without leaking your API keys.

• Extracting data from user content, so you can use AI to analyze pictures, PDFs, and more with confidence.

If you think you missed the AI wave, think again – you'll get everything you need to succeed in this one book.
